Though it may be considered an error by some, the patch on the Task Force 160's helicopter pilot's shoulder showing the symbol of the 82nd Airborne Division is correct. By military tradition any soldier is allowed to wear the insignia of a unit s/he had served in combat on the right shoulder of their uniform...their current assignment insignia would be on the left.

The Air Force Two pilot tells the Vice President that he will get the plane to "30,000 feet in 45 seconds". That would be an ascent rate of 40,000 feet per minute, (455 MPH vertically). That's at least 10 times what the plane can do under ideal conditions when completely empty. See more »

I will start with the pros. This movie is packed with excitement, action, and CGI effects - almost start to finish. Now the cons: a blatant ripoff of both Die Hard and Olympus Has Fallen (which was a blatant ripoff of Die Hard); the most implausible story EVER; the absolute worst acting EVER with Jamie Foxx taking the lead. This movie should be reason enough to finally burn that guy's SAG card once and for all. And Channing Tatum, whom I normally like, was a close second. In fact, the only actor to give a good performance was the little girl who played Tatum's daughter.
Believe the reviews you read here. They are not exaggerations. If you must watch this, wait for Redbox!
